REFLECTION ON DEVELOPMENT AND MAINTENANCE OF INDIVIDUAL BLOG (ASSIGNMENT 2)

           During the previous weeks our tasks were to create our own official blog for the subject computer in education (GE 1155) and that blog functions more towards academic stuff rather than personal one. Therefore, all our reflections, essay and so on need to be posted on our own official blog so that our classmate, course lecturer and our course coordinator would be able to give any constructive comments on it. Personally, I am not really expert in doing this kind of thing as I have never been exposed to it before, but my lecturer was the one who assisted me a lot in order for me to brush up my ICT skills. I believe that without his guidance I would not be able to excel in this subject.
          After we have created our own blog, we need to always up to date it and we were also asked to decorate it using our own creativity by using different designs and templates which were available and downloadable in the internet. This task aims to test how far we can apply the knowledge that we have learned and also to test our competency and determination in learning something new without depending too much on our lecturer. At first I tend to give up since I have tried so many times to look up for some beautiful designs and templates on the net for my blog, but I could not find any so I decided to ask my friend on which website that provides the free blog’s design and templates only then I can decorate my blog nicely. There are few steps involved to change the background of our blog. Firstly, click on the “design” button and click on the “Edit Html” button and paste the code of the background that we have chosen and click on the “Apply to my blog” button. To change the fonts, we should click on the button “Template designer” and click on the “advanced” button then you can choose your own desired fonts.
         Meanwhile, the reflections and the critical essays that we have written needs to be organized neatly according to the weeks so that it would be easier for my lecturer and course coordinator to give their comments on it. Furthermore, we should also be able to develop these skills of decorating our own blogs from time to time and we suppose to always look up for current news which are related to this task.
         In short, the development and maintenance of individual blog has taught me to be more creative and innovative in order to make my blog more interesting and attractive.
